Bill Double

Bill studied at Temple University, Tyler School of Art, The International School Umbria, Italy; Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and The Sedona Art Center. He retired to Indiana, Pennsylvania after teaching art and theater in the Philadelphia area. His recent works are collage/mixed media. He also works in colored pencil, pastel, and photography celebrating places and people. His work has shown in many area group and one man shows. 

He is currently Exhibition Coordinator for the Indiana University of Pennsylvania Museum and serves on the board of the Indiana Arts Association and is actively involved within the Indiana Arts Council. 

Bill has both photography and pastel work in the gallery currently. His pastel pieces are very soft and portray calm environments. While he draws them realistically, the colors he uses are very unique in that they aren't the actual objects' colors, but rather imaginative pigments that blended together create shadow and depth.

The photography pieces that Bill creates are voyeuristic in nature, candidly capturing people. In this piece, the composition allows your eye to travel up the tall buildings and take in the breath taking height.
